LeFevour and recruiting

During the 2005 football recruiting season, Dan LeFevour was an unknown prospect, who only garned a small interest from a few MAC schools, including CMU. Now three years later, ESPN.com has come out with a revised Top 100 list from the 2005 class. LeFevour has gone from a virtual nobody, to the #23 ranked recruit that year. Not too bad for a MAC school to land a top 100 recruit, let alone the #23 guy who plays the most critical position needed. LeFevour also checks in ahead of many big time players, such as Matt Grothe, James Davis, Colt McCoy, PJ Hill, etc. Who would of ever thought a few years ago CMU would have a better QB than a team like Texas?

LeFevour couldn't get an offer from Illinois despite showing up at the Illini's summer camp. The Illinois native didn't arrive in the MAC with any fanfare, but he proved to be one of the country's top 10 QBs in 2007 because of his great run-pass combination game.
